Cement Sector Earnings Expected to Improve in Q3FY27 Amid Price Hikes and Demand Revival
Cement sector earnings are expected to improve in Q3FY27 due to recent price hikes and seasonal demand revival, according to Dolat Capital. The brokerage forecasts a 16.2% sequential increase in EBITDA per tonne, supported by a 2.1% rise in blended realisations and a slight decline in operating expenses. However, persistent cost inflation and new capacity additions may limit margin recovery. The sector saw 13.9% year-on-year revenue growth in Q2FY27, driven by volume increases, though EBITDA declined slightly due to rising costs.
